Fabulous location and stay. Would stay again if I ever go back
Pros:

Location fabulous. Surrounded by alfresco Italian restaurants and cafes. Cafe downstairs excellent. Located near beginning of China town. Felt very safe, even late at night. About a 20 minute walk to fisherman's wharf or the ferries.
Bed was exceptionally comfortable and cosy. Bathroom small but adequate. Shower good. Staff friendly and helpful.

Cons:

It's an old building. So no lift and stairs a bit steep. Not a problem for us but maybe for some. Dragging heavy luggage up the stairs was no fun.
It was very dark. Great for sleeping in. But the light in our room was dull so sometimes it was hard to find things in my bag.

I would recommend staying at this cute little boutique hotel. We got very lucky and they were having a north beach festi
Pros:

It was super cute and clean

Cons:

No AC but to be honest the windows were open and the fan was perfect. In a city that does not get to hot it works

Pros:

Very nice people on a great location.

Cons:

Nothing complain really. We had a room on the inside of the building. So we didn't have a view. But we didn't mind because we were out all day. I think the building is quite old, so it can be a little noisey. But all together, a really nice place.

Cozy room and helpful staff
Pros:

I stayed for just one night and really enjoyed the beautifully designed room and the cozy atmosphere. The reception is so kind and helpful and stored my bags in a secure closet both before and after my stay! I’ll stay here again next time I’m in SF.
